Trying to play this game again but the Dev sure made it difficult; the MC is such an absolute unmitigated coward in the apartment I'm not sure I can stomach playing him. First thought when his family is in danger, regardless of their relationship, is running away.
Dev says that they can't be a hero right away but this isn't about being a hero, its about not being a complete piece of shit.
He was basically a teenager, fresh out of high school, living with a family whom he was pretty sure didn't care much for him, as far as he could tell. Out of nowhere, unknown, ARMED assailants break into his home, he hears gunfire, sees blood under his door, and you expect him to do what exactly? An effin Navy Seal would have been caught by surprise in that scenario. I get what you're saying, as I hate a beta protagonist as much as the next degenerate that loves erotic novels, but I have to suggest that you may be reading a bit too much into this scene, being as early into the game as it is. I also thought is was cowardly, as I believe it was intended to seem that way, but having recently finished this game, I can assure you it does not set the tone for the remainder of the story. Not trying to tell you how or what to think, just offering a different perspective. Cheers!
